Anna Aagaard Jensen (DK)
Anna Aagaard Jensen’s design practice interrogates the preconceived dictated behavioral patterns of women and the social factors allowing them to continue existing today. Her objects are alternative representations of the archetypes that surround us, made with a hyperfeminine aesthetic language where she uses makeup and extracts shapes related to the female body. In creating function, Jensen sculpts form into a story that advocates for a new way of looking at design, and inevitably at our environment.
Anna Aagaard Jensen (b. 1990, Esbjerg; DK) lives and works in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. The artist graduated with an M.A. in Fine Arts and Design from Design Academy Eindhoven, The Netherlands, in 2018 and a B.A. in Furniture Design from the Royal Danish Academy, Copenhagen, Denmark, in 2015. Recent exhibitions include: Etage Projects (Copenhagen; DK), Friedman Benda (New York City; US), Functional Art Gallery (Berlin; DE) and Salone del Mobile (Milan; IT).
